Keep Canvas course files fresh on Bunny CDN
A new course file is uploaded. Notis can clear its matching Bunny URL from cache so the updated asset is ready for learners.
Trigger
New Canvas File Upload
Polls a Canvas course for new file uploads.
Action
Purge URL
Tool to purge a specific url from the bunnycdn cache. use when you need to invalidate a resource immediately after updating it.
Why this helps
Updating a course asset can leave a stale cached copy in circulation, and remembering to purge it adds another manual step.
- Clear the cached URL after a matching course file upload.
- Avoid opening Bunny just to purge an updated asset.
- Use a URL pattern or mapping you provide for course files.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Canvas and Bunnycdn once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, or tell Notis in plain language from any channel.
- 3In one instruction, explain how to identify the matching Bunny URL for an uploaded Canvas file and ask Notis to purge it.
- 4Pick the New Canvas File Upload trigger for the relevant course.
- 5Choose a report channel, then test with one real upload and confirm the URL mapping works.
Questions about this workflow
Does this work for every Canvas file upload?
It can act on uploads covered by your instruction. You must provide a reliable way to match Canvas file URLs or identifiers to Bunny URLs.
Does Canvas guarantee that an uploaded file is served through Bunny?
No. Use this workflow only when your course delivery setup serves the relevant asset through Bunny CDN.
